Platelet Rich Plasma - PRP Treatment
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) facial treatment, uses the body’s own healing resources to stimulate the growth of new tissue, giving your skin a healthy and more youthful appearance.
PRP Treatment
A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient and it is put through a centrifuge which separates the plasma for the rest of the blood and creates a platelet rich plasma.
The plasma is then injected into the area that needs to be treated with a micro cannula or a very small needle, where the platelets release their growth factors.
PRP regenerates collagen, improving skin tone and texture, reducing lines and wrinkles, restoring a youthful, healthy glow. It is also very helpful when used to address blemishes and to help scarring.
How does PRP work?
When re-injected PRP into the skin, the platelets begin to release growth factors. This stimulates collagen production and promotes healing. Collagen, which is found naturally in the body, is at the core of a youthful appearance. With the ageing process the body produces less collagen, which causes loss of volume, and it is one of the main causes of lines and wrinkles. PRP stimulate the collagen production which subsequently results in Hydrated, resilient an healthy skin.
